GH-129835: Yield path with trailing slash from `ReadablePath.glob('')` (#129836)
In the private pathlib ABCs, make `ReadablePath.glob('')` yield a path with
a trailing slash (if it yields anything at all). As a result, `glob()`
works similarly to `joinpath()` when given a non-magic pattern.
In the globbing implementation, we preemptively add trailing slashes to
intermediate paths if there are pattern parts remaining; this removes the
need to check for existing trailing slashes (in the removed `add_slash()`
method) at subsequent steps.
Add `pathlib.Path.info` attribute, which stores an object implementing the `pathlib.types.PathInfo` protocol (also new). The object supports querying the file type and internally caching `os.stat()` results. Path objects generated by `Path.iterdir()` are initialised with status information from `os.DirEntry` objects, which is gleaned from scanning the parent directory.
The `PathInfo` protocol has four methods: `exists()`, `is_dir()`, `is_file()` and `is_symlink()`.

gh-55454: Add IMAP4 IDLE support to imaplib (#122542)
* gh-55454: Add IMAP4 IDLE support to imaplib
This extends imaplib with support for the rfc2177 IMAP IDLE command,
as requested in #55454. It allows events to be pushed to a client as
they occur, rather than having to continually poll for mailbox changes.
The interface is a new idle() method, which returns an iterable context
manager. Entering the context starts IDLE mode, during which events
(untagged responses) can be retrieved using the iteration protocol.
Exiting the context sends DONE to the server, ending IDLE mode.
An optional time limit for the IDLE session is supported, for use with
servers that impose an inactivity timeout.
The context manager also offers a burst() method, designed for programs
wishing to process events in batch rather than one at a time.
Notable differences from other implementations:
- It's an extension to imaplib, rather than a replacement.
- It doesn't introduce additional threads.
- It doesn't impose new requirements on the use of imaplib's existing methods.
- It passes the unit tests in CPython's test/test_imaplib.py module
(and adds new ones).
- It works on Windows, Linux, and other unix-like systems.
- It makes IDLE available on all of imaplib's client variants
(including IMAP4_stream).
- The interface is pythonic and easy to use.
Caveats:
- Due to a Windows limitation, the special case of IMAP4_stream running
on Windows lacks a duration/timeout feature. (This is the stdin/stdout
pipe connection variant; timeouts work fine for socket-based
connections, even on Windows.) I have documented it where appropriate.
- The file-like imaplib instance attributes are changed from buffered to
unbuffered mode. This could potentially break any client code that
uses those objects directly without expecting partial reads/writes.
However, these attributes are undocumented. As such, I think (and
PEP 8 confirms) that they are fair game for changes.
https://peps.python.org/pep-0008/#public-and-internal-interfaces
- Add example idle response tuples, to make the minor difference from other
imaplib response tuples more obvious.
- Merge the idle context manager's burst() method docs with the IMAP
object's idle() method docs, for easier understanding.
- Upgrade the Windows note regarding lack of pipe timeouts to a warning.
- Rephrase various things for clarity.

The links didn't work consistently, and caused sphinx warnings that
broke cpython's continuous integration tests.
* imaplib: update test after recent exception change
The burst() method is a little tricky to link in restructuredText, due
to quirks of its parent class. This syntax allows sphinx to generate
working links without generating warnings (which break continuous
integration) and without burdening the reader with unimportant namespace
qualifications. It makes the reST source ugly, but few people read
the reST source, so it's a tolerable tradeoff.

* imaplib: end doc string titles with a period
* imaplib: idle: socket timeouts instead of select()
IDLE timeouts were originally implemented using select() after
checking for the presence of already-buffered data.
That allowed timeouts on pipe connetions like IMAP4_stream.
However, it seemed possible that SSL data arriving without any
IMAP data afterward could cause select() to indicate available
application data when there was none, leading to a read() call
that would block with no timeout. It was unclear under what
conditions this would happen in practice. This change switches
to socket timeouts instead of select(), just to be safe.
This also reverts IMAP4_stream changes that were made to support IDLE
timeouts, since our new implementation only supports socket connections.
* imaplib: Idler: rename private state attributes
* imaplib: rephrase a comment in example code
* docs: imaplib: idle: use Sphinx code-block:: pycon
Since we generally rely on the reST/html documentation for details, we
can keep these doc strings short. This matches the module's existing doc
string style and avoids having to sync small changes between two files.

* docs: imaplib: idle: versionadded:: next

* imaplib: downgrade idle-denied exception to error
This makes it easier for client code to distinguish a temporary
rejection of the IDLE command from a server responding incorrectly to
IDLE.
* imaplib: simplify check for socket object
* imaplib: narrow the scope of IDLE socket timeouts
If an IDLE duration or burst() was in use, and an unsolicited response
contained a literal string, and crossed a packet boundary, and the
subsequent packet was delayed beyond the IDLE feature's time limit, the
timeout would leave the incoming protocol stream in a bad state (with
the tail of that response appearing where the start of a response is
expected).
This change moves the IDLE socket timeout to cover only the start
of a response, so it can no longer cause that problem.
* imaplib: preserve partial reads on exception
This ensures that short IDLE durations / burst() intervals
won't risk corrupting response lines that span multiple packets.
* imaplib: read/readline: save multipart buffer tail
For resilience if read() or readline() ever complete with more than one
bytes object remaining in the buffer. This is not expected to happen,
but it seems wise to be prepared for a future change making it possible.
* imaplib: use TimeoutError subclass only if needed
* doc: imaplib: elaborate on IDLE response delivery
* doc: imaplib: elaborate in note re: IMAP4.response

Our read() implementation designed to support IDLE replaces the one from

added are preserved.

gh-127833: Docs: Add a `grammar-snippet` directive & replace `productionlist` (GH-127835)
As a first step toward aligning the grammar documentation with Python's actual

- use `:` instead of the `::=` symbol
- add syntax highlighting for strings (using a Pygments highlighting class)
All links and link targets should be preserved. (Unfortunately, this reaches
into some Sphinx internals; I don't see a better way to do exactly what
Sphinx does.)
This also adds a new directive, `grammar-snippet`, which formats the snippet
almost exactly like what's in the source, modulo syntax highlighting and
keeping the backtick character to mark links to other rules.
This will allow formatting the snippets as in the grammar file
(file:///home/encukou/dev/cpython/Doc/build/html/reference/grammar.html).
The new directive is applied to two simple rules in toplevel_components.rst
